Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Clark had to create a project out of recycled materials for school for Earth Day. He came up with a few crazy ideas and then we finally settled on a catapult. We started with a piece of scrap wood and some paint. Added a zombie driver, clothespin, milk jug lid and some old washers and nuts. Clark topped it off with some great silver Sharpie decorations and was pretty proud of himself.

Kent had to make one too.

And Clark created a zombie car catapult. He was SO excited to take it to school and show all of his friends. After he took it, I thought it probably didn't look much like a recycled project, but everything came from old projects or garbage or his old toys. So it was more of a reuse project I guess.
